Yellow Rose

My brother Stephen lives in Australia with his wife Margaret.  She sent me this beautiful photo.  Stephen had promised to plant a yellow rose bush in their garden for me, and this is the first bloom.  Isn't it beautiful?  And what a kind and lovely thing to do.  Thank you, Margaret and Stephen.



This photo shows some of the wallabies that visit their garden every day.



It is so nice to think of someone I love dearly making a successful life, healthy and happy, even if it is on the other side of the world. More power to you, Steve and Margaret!

My sister Melanie lives in New Zealand and she is very excited because she has an adorable Cornish SiRex cat, Chloe, who has been mated with a lovely Tom so they are expecting kittens. Here is a picture of Chloe:
